Oberheim Matrix-6: Superbad Muchacho

YouTube via FlakeStick | July 20, 2010 | - video re-uploaded below.

"This is an un-rehearsed demo featuring the sounds of the Oberheim Matrix-6. The Matrix-6 has 6-voice polyphony and is capable of splits, aftertouch sensitive, programmable benders and 100 patches. Getting the most out of programming the Matrix-6 isn't for you lazy folk out there in need of instant gratifications, but a little bit of finger-effort on insane-membrane buttons will produce rewards beyond your wildest fantasy. Well, maybe not THAT cool, but pretty cool um-kay? The Matrix-6 is capable of many of the sonic mayhem of its big brothers the Xpander and Matrix-12. Patch programming can be done via MIDI on your favorite DAW platform. I have Cubase SX3 but never got around to mapping the parameters to the Matrix. Because you know what? Programming from the front panel isn't difficult at all so I don't know what all the fuss is about. You CAN program both benders and TWO pedals to control any parameter in the modulation matrix and store that on a PER PATCH basis. Anyway, this recording doesn't make use of any effects except for the very last song - but used some reverb judiciously in that instance. I slopped this thing together in a couple of hours so take it easy with the comments. Actually nevermind that - say whatever you muchachos want - I'm good for it. :)"
